The following article is reprinted from the 1953 Agricultural Almanac: “Courtesy Lengthens Life”: “If you are driving in a hurry and come to an intersection and pause to let another driver pass, it takes time but it’s worth the effort. If you let another customer take your turn in a lineup at the cash register, it take time but the pleasure is yours. You live twice as long in the minutes you give to others and if you live enough of these minutes, the true span of your life can double.”
